I BBQ Smoked some game hens in a brine (my first brine) and although the meat was juicy I think the smoke over powered the flavors of the brine. I used dry herbs from Knox Spice Co and cooked them on low and cooled before adding to the brine. I will have to try it again without BBQ smoking them.
thanks for the nicely done show and the inspiration for Brine!
Hey Jason, As for a kid like me, I'm unable to cook a turkey but seriously, thanks for giving out really simple recipes in your web, like "Cheese Omelet" and "Garlic Mashed Potato" It really helps me. :D
What a great question. The herbs definitely add flavor to the brine which transfers a small amount of flavor into the bird. It is not an over powering flavor by any means.
This year I bought one of those turkey fryers. My Mother roasted one in the oven, and I handled the deep fryer Her turkey looked picture perfect, but mine was so juicy. On my turkey I removed the therm and wire ring holding the legs together before dropping it in the oil. I'm not sure if those pieces are a problem or not. The therm might melt? The wire brace might not be a problem, taking the wire off made the turkey spread its legs like a virgin on prom night though. What do you recommend Jason
OMG! All these turkeys I see on YT look so much better than what my parents made. Not to knock their turkey, since it was very juicy, but I love doing things differently than just stuffing with onions and carrots and seasoning the top and roasting it. I love how almost each one here shows a different technique that I wish my parents would use...like cooking it on the grill with a spice run, or brining it...They so boring. hehe...
Nice job. Take a look at my channel and tell me what ya think.
Hello. During cooking, It's when you collect the juices from the bottom of the roasting pan with a baster. Then you drizzle these juices over the turkey.
yum. i hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving!!! i wasn't able to make the turkey recipe for this thanksgiving ... but i'll definitely try this for christmas ... since everyone wants turkey instead of ham. thanks for the recipe!!!
that looks great, Chef Jason. I was wondering if you had a recipe/video for making the stuffing as well? It'd be great if you could post one up, because stuffing is one of my favourite parts about thanksgiving and christmas. Thank you for your amazing tips for cooking! Happy Thanksgiving =D
Great video as usual Jason. This might be a stupid question to ask but what would be the difference in taste as far as comparing a regular turkey to a wild turkey. Wouldn't it taste the same? We have wild turkeys all over the place here where I live. I was actually considering killing a few for next Thanksgiving with my 9mm glock. They have become a nuisance. Thanks!
Thoes turkeys isnt really wild if u can come up close with a pistol to shoot em.
It is recommended u get a Gun perment and hunting license and use a shotgun instead.
If u have that, then u should know better.
Last thing eating wild game dos´nt taste very good compared to eating farmed animals, because of the food they eat and of safety reasons when it comes to diseases.
Im hungry now!

I was wondering how soluble the flavors from the fresh herbs in the brine were? Do they transfer much flavor into the bird and final product?
Thanks again!
